Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Remember when Donald Trump got caught with all sorts of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago after saying he didn't have anything, and then he got indicted but the judge slow walked the case to death? Yup. He did that.

Doing time in the slammer? All you need to do is fork over "Get Out of Jail" money (not the kind in the game Monopoly), and you'll walk free as a bird. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Marc Elias: "Trump is the walking embodiment of everything that's wrong with the American political system." It's easier for Trump to discredit those reporting on how awful he is, rather than make the effort not to be so awful. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace
